welllllllll,,, 6 is allready low,, but I have heard guys getting down to 1,, but man o man that is taking your cp3 for granted,, they are not cheap/easy to replace. I think that if it dosent get any lower than say 5 you should be ok,, but I would start to worry around that level

The 05-06 truck should run 6-7psi. They are a low pressure high volume pump. 6-7 psi is listed as the proper pressure from the factory.

Mine runs around 7-8 psi at idle, I can pull it down to almost zero with the ts ramifier.
